Title: Equalized hydraulic clamp force control
Inventor: PETRONEK DAVID W
IPC: B66F9/18
Filed: 2009-08-31
Granted: 2015-12-22
Abstract: Hydraulic valve circuitry adapted for automatic weight-re-sponsive control of load-clamping members of a load-lifting system having a free lift mast. The load-lifting system generally includes one or more flu-id power actuator (101, 103) for applying a gripping force to a load, at least one elongate, longitudinally-extensible fluid power lifting device (154, 156) having a free lift range of motion and at least one main lift range of motion, and manually operated load-clamping and load-lifting se-lector valves (134, 146). The hydraulic valve circuitry provides, indepen-dently, weight-responsive control of the load- clamping members when lifting a load, full-time automatic weight-responsive force control of the load-clamping members without concurrent manual actuation of load--clamping or load-lifting selector valves, and equalization of sensed load weight so that the sensed load weight is substantially independent of the longitudinally-extensible position of the lifting device.

Abstract: A filter bag of a vacuum cleaner has a filter mounting plate that includes a generally strap-shaped securing element with pivot members on an end thereof. A housing of the vacuum cleaner defines a filter bag compartment therein and has pivot receivers into which the pivot members can be substantially vertically inserted. Then the filter mounting plate can be pivoted into a substantially horizontal installed position as the filter bag is inserted into the filter bag compartment. In the installed position, a first stop member of the filter mounting plate contacts and is stopped by a second stop member of the housing so as to prevent further pivoting and so as to properly position and hold the filter mounting plate.

Abstract: Identification devices having a contactlessly readable data carrier (20) must be equipped with an antenna (17). In known identification devices (10) the antenna (17) comprises an additional component.   The invention proposes that the antenna (17) assigned to the data carrier (20) is formed by an electrically conductive part of the identification device (10) with a slit (18) provided therein. This makes the antenna (17) an integral component of the identification device (10). A separate antenna (17) is therefore redundant.

Abstract: A process for preparing a microparticulate complex is provided. The process comprises: a) combining a particle-forming component ('PFC') and a nucleic acid-like component ('NAC') in a monophasic composition comprising water and a water-miscible, organic solvent to form a mixture wherein the PFC and the NAC are independently molecularly or micellarly soluble in the aqueous/organic solvent system, and b) reducing the amount of the organic solvent in the mixture. This effects formation of the microparticulate complex of the NAC and the PFC. Also provided is a microparticulate complex that comprises a particle-forming component complexed to a nucleic acid-like component forming an approximately spherical particle, wherein the particle-forming component encloses an interior of the particle containing the nucleic acid-like component and the so-enclosed interior volume has less than about 50 % (preferably less than 20 %) of the volume containing free water. Also disclosed composition comprising water and particles of the microparticulate complex. According to the invention a nucleic acid-like is component is delivered to a cell by (a) contacting the cell with a composition comprising water and the microparticulate complex, and (b) maintaining the contact for a time sufficient to allow the nucleic acid-based moiety to enter the cell. A therapeutic nucleic acid- like component is delivered into a patient in need thereof by administering a composition comprising water and particles of the microparticulate complex. Also disclosed is a charge-changing composition represented by the formula A-X-B, wherein X represents a chemical bond capable of irreversible dissociation in reaction to a factor in a physiological or bioprocess environment; A represents a molecular moiety that upon dissociation of the bond X produces a ionically charged product; and B represents a molecular moiety, which upon the dissociation of bond X, separates from the composition leaving the remaining ionically charged product more positive than that of A-X-B itself.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a multilayer microfluidic probe (MFP) head (100). The head typically comprises a first (110) and second (120) layers facing each others, and at least one tubing port (182), extending from the first layer (110). The first layer comprises one or more via (112), whereby fluid communication is enabled through the first layer towards the second layer. The second layer comprises at least one microchannel (124), relaying fluid communication to an aperture (122). Such a multilayered MFP head is easier to fabricate than heads made with unitary construction. In particular, a microchannel can advantageously be engraved a groove (124) at the level of the interface between the two layers. The MFP head can further be interfaced with tubing using e.g. a standard fitting for tubing port. The invention has substantial potential for e.g. patterning continuous and discontinuous patterns of biomolecules on surfaces as well as for direct processing of resist materials in a non- contact mode.

Title: Surface-assisted hemagglutination and hemagglutination inhibition assays
Inventor: KACHURIN ANATOLY
IPC: G01N33/569
Filed: 2010-10-20
Granted: 2020-08-18
Abstract: Hemagglutination (HA) and hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) functional assays remain important instruments of analysis of virus-cell interaction and protecting efficacy of virus-specific antibodies and sera. However, they demonstrate limited sensitivity towards many viruses, and require significant volumes of viruses, erythrocytes, sera, and antibodies. The present invention comprises new and significantly more sensitive versions of the HA and HAI assays based on observing agglutination on activated surfaces of specifically opsonized plates and ELISA plates rather than in solution. A version of the new assay that uses ELISA plates additionally allows characterizing the affinity of functional antibodies in the tested sera and fluids, which is not possible in the classical HAI assay. The methods of the present invention can also be used to improve the sensitivity of agglutination methods based on latex beads and to develop agglutination methods using target cells other than erythrocytes.
